When Li Fan transmigrated into a new world, his life seemed unremarkable. He was moderately well-off, with a wife and children, but nothing extraordinary. Everything changed upon his death, when he...
Chapter 634 Zhenghao's Ambition
"What are you afraid of?"
This is tantamount to murderous words. He Zhenghao heard this and a cold sweat broke out on the spot.
"I have no ulterior motives, your Excellency can see clearly!" he said immediately.
"Think it over again and take care of yourself!" Li Fan snorted coldly, and then his shadow shattered and disappeared without a trace.
It was a long time before He Zhenghao dared to straighten his bent body.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a long breath. He suddenly remembered that his daughter was right beside him, so he coughed and instantly recovered.
Fortunately, He Xinxin did not notice her father's embarrassment, but patted her chest with her little hands and sighed: "Senior Li is so powerful, almost as powerful as those Hedao Immortal Lords I met at home before. It really scared me to death."
"Hehe, of course. The secret envoy is very likely the chief..." He Zhenghao said halfway, felt that something was wrong, and stopped abruptly.
Fortunately, his daughter did not notice the meaning of the words, so He Zhenghao changed the subject.
"What on earth did he mean by what he just said, sir?"
"I didn't directly deny Xinxin's deduction, I just said I wouldn't leave..."
After a moment, a trace of fear flashed in He Zhenghao's eyes.
"Could it be possible that something shocking will really happen in Cong Yunhai?"
He fell into deep thought for a moment.
Deep inside the Government Hall, Li Fan watched every change in He Zhenghao's expression, but his heart was not disturbed at all.
"Give up power and flee far away for your life. Or hold on to your luck and refuse to leave for the sake of power and wealth..."
"Friend He, what would you choose?"
According to Li Fan's understanding of He Zhenghao, there is no doubt that he will choose to stay in Cong Yunhai. But he still hopes that He Zhenghao in this life can bring him some surprises.
His attention was no longer on He Zhenghao. Li Fan summoned many members of Cong Yunhai's system through secret orders.
"Your Excellency has not summoned us for a long time. What urgent matter is there?"
"It's a bit strange. I haven't heard of any important missions recently."
Everyone was talking about it.
He Zhenghao was still in a dilemma, with a vague look on his face.
Gao Yuan looked thoughtful when he saw this, but he didn't ask immediately, instead he kept it in mind.
Not long after, when all the people were present, Li Fan appeared leisurely.
"Greetings, Mr. Secret Envoy!" Everyone bowed.
"Don't be shy, take a seat." Li Fan said with a kind face.
"I called you here today for no serious matter. You all know that although I am the Secret Envoy of Congyun Fairy City, I have never been in charge of affairs. Congyunhai's government affairs have never been neglected, and even its comprehensive ranking among all states has risen every year. Naturally, this is inseparable from your contributions."
Li Fan paused, glanced at everyone's expressions, and continued, "It's called returning a favor. I recently figured out another opportunity, and I'm just telling you about it."
The eyes of the monks present lit up when they heard this. Who is Li Fan? He is a man who would not take hundreds of thousands of contributions seriously.
The opportunity he was talking about must be extraordinary! So they all looked at Li Fan with expectant eyes.
"I have deduced that soon a cave will rise from the bottom of the sea. The opportunity lies in this cave!" Li Fan said in a deep voice.
After these words were spoken, the monks became a little agitated.
"Of course, opportunities always coexist with danger. As for whether you want to pursue it, it all depends on your own choice." Li Fan said the last sentence lightly, revealing a half-smile, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight.
After confirming that Li Fan had left, the hall suddenly became lively.
"What on earth do you mean, Master Secret Envoy? You called us all the way here just to say this?"
"Weird! Really weird!"
"The underwater cave, perhaps, is it the ruins of an ancient sect? Hiss, something that can be called an opportunity by the adults and that has caused such a great commotion must be something extraordinary!"
…
Everyone looked excited and talked a lot.
He Zhenghao was full of doubts and confusion.
"Fellow Daoist He, do you know something about this?"
At this moment, he suddenly heard Gao Yuan's voice.
After pondering for a moment, He Zhenghao briefly explained to Gao Yuan what had happened recently and wanted to hear his opinion.
"Is something about to happen to Cong Yunhai?" Gao Yuan was shocked at first, but remained calm.
"But the master said that he would not leave. After questioning what you wanted to do, he announced the opportunity of the cave..."
Gao Yuan's mind raced and he started thinking quickly.
After a while, Gao Yuan had an idea and got a result.
"I see!"
"Brother Gao, please teach me!" He Zhenghao asked hurriedly as if he had found a savior.
"My Lord is using this opportunity in the cave to enlighten us. Something strange has happened in Congyun Sea, but my Lord is unwilling to leave. Why is that?"
"Because opportunities and crises coexist!" Gao Yuan said excitedly, "With the resources that the Lord has at his disposal now, he still values opportunities so much..."
"I'm afraid that's the only way to reach the sky..."
"Spirit of Heaven and Earth?"
He Zhenghao and Gao Yuan's eyes met and they thought of the same thing.
"So that's how it is..." He Zhenghao murmured to himself, as if everything made sense.
"Since the master has fallen from the realm of immortality, if he wants to regain immortality, he will probably still have to follow the steps of the new method. He will definitely not let go of this opportunity to merge with the Tao. I heard that when the spirit of heaven and earth descends to the world, there will definitely be a bloody storm. By then, not to mention us Jindan cultivators, even Yuanying and Huashen may not be able to escape."
"The spirit of heaven and earth is about to descend upon the world, and this matter cannot be spoken directly. Perhaps under the influence of the heavens, there may be changes. As your old subordinates, you cannot bear to see us die in vain in the disaster. So you find another way and use this method to wake us up."
…
He Zhenghao suddenly realized.
While I was extremely excited, I also felt some inappropriate emotions.
"Spirit of Heaven and Earth..."
He Zhenghao narrowed his eyes.
"So Brother Gao, what do you think?" After a while, he looked at Gao Yuan, whose expression was also changing, and asked.
"Friend He, have you ever heard a saying?" Gao Yuan looked at He Zhenghao.
"What?"
"There is no greater achievement than following the dragon!" Gao Yuan said in a faint voice.
"If you succeed in merging with the Dao, and we, your subordinates, remain with you..."
As He Zhenghao listened, the flame of ambition suddenly ignited in his heart.
Even deep in his mind, there was an idea that he didn't dare to express at all.
The spirit of heaven and earth is inhabited by those with virtue.
If the secret envoy fails to offer sacrifice to the spirits of heaven and earth, then do I perhaps have a slight chance?
It should be noted that such things have happened in the history of Xuanhuang Realm.
